Fancy LED bulb burns out
There it is. I'm not saying the name out loud, since they might have lawyers. This burned out as quickly as a cheap bulb from Poland. Boy, do they get hot! No wonder they can't survive. I bought this for my heavily used kitchen light, which is on automatic and can't take compact flour. bulbs.
Tomorrow, I have to go to Home Depot and do my dead parrot act. Wonder if I'll be successful.
Update: Big fail at Home Depot. They will only handle failures at 3 months. Now I will shout the name for the search engines "Philips LED Bulb Burns Out". I'm off to the company if they have email. Otherwise I might just buy another one and hope they have fixed the design flaw.
Update2: They received the email. This should rival my 3M strips campaign. Will I do a video?
Update3: I'm getting too toxic on this. No, I will not make a singing video. I will not look up all their email addresses as I did with Asus. I am allowing myself to fail as happened with Saks.
Update4: Day 2 of no response. Have added g+ philips.
Final update

M6.9 earthquake Japan - Deep Slab
So, I'm an earthquake ghoul, always scanning the maps. Tweetping is not showing this yet, so the earthquake maps win.
This is deep on the slab at 100 km. It will still produce a high PGV on soft ground and mountainous areas. Thus, we can expect landslides.
Update: Looks like this earthquake had almost no PGV at surface, so it did nothing. For an M6.9 that probably puts it at 400 km, much like the Bolivian big deep earthquakes.

Twitter earthquake modelling (monitoring)
Reference
Right now you can follow the sunrise. I can't wait to see it with an earthquake. Personally, I can't stand Twitter since I don't know how to turn off the flood of spam and stupidity, but I'm glad that others use it.
Got this reference here.
